in terms of today's rand paul news, dave weigel reports today the confederate flag mask wearing southern avenger guy, that guy, that reporting on him as a rand paul staffer is not likely to affect his standing or his job in rand paul world. the staffer in question told the "free beacon" today he does not stand by some of the most inflammatory things he said but he believes -- he said he believed in the past but avowedly stood by them back at the time rand paul was hiring him in the first place and having him write his book. so at the micro level there's this unresolved question in republican politics about whether overt confederate white supremacist stuff is embarrassing. whether people should be able to hold those views and also be active in mainstream conservative politics and mainstream republican party politics. at the macro level, though, beyond those kind of staffing decisions, there's also the larger strategic question of what the republican party wants to be. could the, should the republican party be just the party of aggrieved white people? even to the extent that it may stray o

in a fascinating new profile, "slate's" dave weigel pronounced grayson the most effective member of the house. what emerges is the picture of a former firebrand making his mark as a quiet, forceful and incredibly effective legislator. grayson launched dozens of under the radar campaigns to win over his republican colleagues. grayson gets their support on amendments to pieces of legislation accomplish small but concrete progressive goals. he's already passed 31 amendments in committee this year. in one instance, fwrgrayson attached a ban on funding for unmanned aerial vehicles, known as drones to the homeland security bill. this is kind of thing he's getting republican votes on. grayson is working the chamber trying to win support for an amendment that would restrict nsa surveillance. he says he only needs four more republicans. it's all pretty impressive. in the do-nothing congress, the lawmaker who is actually doing something is the last guy you'd expect. joining me now, congressman alan grayson, democrat from florida. and you're chuckling at the last guy you expect i imagine. because

. >> with reactions like that, dave weigel, do you think that he can stay in the race and be competitive? >> we can stay in the race because what is his option if he drops out? further disgrace, further humiliation, even probably lower earning potential because he had been doing well and his wife had been doing well as consultants using connections when everyone had forgotten about them. i think -- look, this is a guy who feeds off attention. i don't think we need to provide yet more evidence. he probably will soon that he feeds off of attention. he's going to slug it out until the september primary. and if he gets into the runoff, i think democrats would appreciate having him around and having him as an embarrassment. he's the one person anyone in the field can defeat. but you saw huge -- if you look at the polls of this week, a huge dropoff from people who had been forgiving him for the scandal. not just beating him down by nine points but favorables had been ticking up. people had been buying the narrative his marriage had been solved and they had gotten passed their problems. being t
